Reliability and Capacity of our Networks:
We have invested tens of millions of dollars upgrading and supporting our fiber networks. Our networks are designed, built and supported for capacity, speed, flexibility, and reliability. In addition we have trained and certified local technicians at the ready should a local need arise. As this situation has unfolded we have undertaken incremental steps to ensure business continuity in our networks. You can be assured there is plenty of capacity to handle the extra load of working and learning from home and that we monitor that usage and capacity on a real time basis.
If you choose to call us, please know that wait times may be a bit higher as some of our employees are dealing with COVID-19 related restrictions in their own communities.
Keeping you and our employees safe:
All of our employees have been provided a COVID-19/Coronavirus training program based on CDC guidelines to help them understand how to prevent the spread of the virus. This training includes recognizing any illness or symptoms they may experience and to not come to work should they be experiencing those symptoms, while also recognizing symptoms and safety steps when dealing with others. We will continue to use our best efforts to stock our offices and service vehicles with hand sanitizers and our installers and technicians with vinyl gloves for added security as long as supplies last. In addition, we have increased the frequency of cleaning our lobbies and offices.
As you, your families or businesses take the necessary steps to stay healthy and mitigate the spread of this virus, know that each of us at Astound Broadband by Wave remain committed to doing the same while also ensuring that our networks perform at their best to keep all of us and our communities connected.
Lastly, thank you for being an Astound Broadband customer. We all appreciate it very much.
